Hi!
I am making a cool wallpaper changer , but i need to know the api (or whatever it is ) to open folders , the point is that i need to get the BMP files paths.

BTW do you know how to enable opning of SOME files in this apis?
Public Declare Function GetOpenFileName Lib "comdlg32.dll" Alias "GetOpenFileNameA" (pOpenfilename As OPENFILENAME) As Long
Public Type OPENFILENAME


Thanks to all.

GetOpenFileName shows up a dialog box asking you to open a file... I don't think that's what you want. Could you elaborate a bit, though?
 
I understood how to make the openfiledialog open more than one file, (its a flag you add) but when i add the flag, i get an older version of openfiledialog.

What should i do?
 
I think there is a flag that uses the older version. Make sure you aren't using that one and that you are sure you are using the right flags.
